The wonderfully titled Greetings, Carbon-Based Bipeds! is a collection taken from Sir Arthur C Clarkes non-fiction writing from over half a centurys prolific output. It might seem a rather daunting book at first sight: 110 separate pieces of writing, well over 500 pages, but in fact its an excellent read, either from beginning to end or simply dipping in at whim. There are, as might be expected, popular science articles, pieces about space exploration and, of course, science fiction; there are also numerous sideswipes at uninformed UFO believers, spoonbenders, assorted New Agers and Creationists; and there are several fascinating and informative articles on Clarkes great loves, underwater exploration and Ceylon/Sri Lanka. Clarke completists may already have a few of the pieces in earlier volumes such as Profiles of the Future, but most of them are available in an accessible form for the first time, taken from The Journal of the British Astronomical Society, The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, The Times Higher Education Supplement and other similarly disparate sources. A number of Clarkes speeches are also included. There are numerous references to the film and book 2001: A Space Odyssey. Speaking of the late Stanley Kubrick, Clarke writes, One of my deepest regrets now is that we will not be able to share the year 2001 together. Its good to see that Clarke, in poor health for some years, is still hard at work. --David V. Barrett

Question: please tell me where Swords of the Viking Age by Ian Peirce tablet access book sale value

This new work fills a vacuum in English language studies of the swords made and used in northern Europe during the Viking Age, from the mid-eighth through to the mid-eleventh century. Given the mission of seeking out the best representative examples of the broad diversity of sword types surviving from this time, Ian Peirce, lecturer and museum consultant, travelled to museums of northern Europe and, from the hundreds of swords he handled, selected some sixty examples. While a few of these swords will be well known from inclusion in previous publications but are too important to omit, the majority are rarely seen or newly shown here. Where possible, a full-length photograph and photographs of details have been included for each example, with the illustrations and descriptions of most of the swords covering two facing pages. Eight pages of colour illustrations are included, three of which are reproductions from Loranges unsurpassed lithographs of 1889. A brief illustrated overview of blade types and construction, pattern-welding, inscriptions and handle forms and their classification under Jan Petersens classification is included as an introduction to the catalogue of examples which forms the bulk of this work. IAN PEIRCE, engineer, armourer and weaponsmith, staged major exhibitions of armour and weapons in England, France and Ireland, and wrote and lectured extensively on arms and armour, on the Norman Conquest and on the Vikings. EWART OAKESHOTT was a world-renowned expert in sword studies, and the deviser of a comprehensive typology of medieval swords which has been instrumental in the development of sword scholarship. His books include Records of the Medieval Sword, The Sword in the Age of Chivalry and European Weapons and Armour.

Pat Falveys story is one of courage and triumph, of turning adversity to advantage. He was a self-made millionaire by the age of 28; two years later he was almost broke. He faced his tough times head on and turned to the great outdoors to find new challenges and personal fulfillment. He quickly found new success, and became the first Irishman to climb all the great mountains of the world, including Everest, Kilimanjaro, McKinley, Mount Vinson in Antarctica, and Mount Aconcagua in South America. He also spent an extensive amount of time exploring the jungles of Irian Jaya in New Guinea, much of it with the man-eating Dani tribe, currently in danger of extinction from occupying Indonesian forces.

These photographs, taken from the very gifted and patient hand of Ansel Adams, is about one thing as far as I am concerned: The power of solitude. We dont give it much thought anymore as there is always something that needs to be done or something, primarily technological, that demands our attention. I was fortunate enough to have made my way through this book the night before the 2012 supermoon made its appearance, and...without much urging...asked my wife if we could just watch it that night and not plan anything else. We were treated to one of the greatest evenings I can remember.If for nothing else, pick this up to see the quiet corners of the American West (primarily), reflect on the power of alone-ness and marvel at the human being who took countless moments of his life taking these photos so that we can pretend we are there experiencing it ourselves.

Just when he thinks his life is returning to normal, he notices Cami sitting alone at a table at The Red.

Poland, 1941. Sixteen-year-old Harry Haft is sent to Auschwitz. When he is forced to fight against other inmates for the amusement of the SS officers, Haft shows extraordinary strength and courage, and a determination to survive. As the Soviet Army advances in April 1945, he makes a daring escape from the Nazis. After negotiating the turmoil of postwar Poland, Haft immigrates to the United States and establishes himself as a professional prizefighter, remaining undefeated until he faces heavy­weight champion Rocky Marciano in 1949. In The Boxer, Reinhard Kleist reveals another side to the steely Harry Haft: a man struggling to escape the memories of the fiancée he left behind in Poland. This is a powerful and moving graphic novel about love and the will to survive.

Im mixed about this book. The world and setting is amazingly realized. Familiar in all the right ways and yet fresh and vibrant. As one might expect given the authors...it is the absolute perfect RPG setting.The story line was also solid. An epic tale of a war between gods and the handful of humans caught in between who can swing the outcome.But the characters...oh...the characters. Sad sacks who are swept along by events from one rock to the next hardplace...sometimes by their own weakness, sometimes by their own stubborn stupidity, and sometimes by the shear power of immortal forces beyond their strength. They have no agency, accomplish nothing on their own, and are the recipients of more deus ex machina than Ive ever seen in one trilogy.In fact, by far the most interesting and realized character was pure unadulterated evil. A truly wretched scum bag with one of those twisted codes of honor that make you slightly sick for thinking that maybe his honor makes him a little less vile. But despite his evil nature, hes pretty much the only character (other than the main villains) whos at all competant or proactive.So Mixed Indeed. If youre a fan of inpsired fantasy settings...4 stars. If you have no idea what perfect for an RPG even means...2 stars...maybe.
